Predators vs Coyotes: Prediction
Nashville Predators
Nashville has a pretty good roster, with which it was important to get into the playoffs. It did that, and now it needs to prove itself well in the skill games. Right now, though, the team’s morale can’t be good, as it has failed in the past four games.
Recall that the Predators lost to Tampa Bay (2-6), as well as in extra time lost to Minnesota and Calgary with the score 4-5. Fortunately, in contrast to the opponent, John Hines’s team does not have difficulties with the realization of chances and on average even on the road is distinguished by three or more scored pucks
Arizona Coyotes
Now it is safe to say that Arizona will remain in last place in the Western Conference, because there is no way it can catch up with Seattle. Despite this, in the last two games the team was successful and thus broke the unfortunate streak of ten defeats.
On the road the Coyotes were defeated by Minnesota (5:2) and also beat Dallas 4:3 in overtime. Playing on a counter course is best for the Dogs, but it often happens that they can not take advantage of its moments, and in return they miss a lot. And in terms of goals scored the club is the worst in the league.
Prediction
Nashville has faced Arizona twice this season, and both times they were successful in regulation time. It is important for the Presidents to finish the regular season on a positive note, so that they don’t go into the playoffs thinking that they lost to the league’s top underdog. That’s why we expect the visitors to win.
